The syntax tar command

tar [Options] your_tar_name.tar source_tar

Options

-c –create Create a new archive.
-x –extract Extract files from an archive.
-t –list List the contents of an archive.
-f –file=ARCHIVE Use archive file or directories ARCHIVE.
-v –verbose Verbosely list files processed.
-a –auto-compress Use archive suffix to determine the compression program.
-j –bzip2 Filter the archive through bzip2.
-J –xz Filter the archive through xz.
-z –gzip Filter the archive through gzip.

For example, tar command examples, compress a directory.
